The following is a hastily made copy of the appeal filing that Ed (the lawyer) filed on December 10th, 2012. The appeal is for the second case (not the first case, which was PeaceCamp2010 specific). In the second case, I was convicted and sentenced to two years (currently suspended), for protesting the criminalization of sleep and for protesting the criminalization of protest itself (#MakingProtestACrimeIsACrime).
I haven't read this appeal (I only marked it up, hastily, any errors of transcription are mine). While I am not yet familiar with the contents, my impression is that some of what I wanted (such as asserting the right to sleep as a positive right (thank you India!)) did make it into the filing (it has been a bit contentious, and I am not a lawyer, so I don't have much say, when it comes to filings).
Anyway, I would like to publicly thank Ed Frey. It hasn't been easy. It remains a long struggle. If both cases fail in the higher courts (AKA I am (almost) exhausted), my hope is that the effort might encourage and assist any future attempts, until sleep is legal, or consent is withdrawn.
